Internship Experience | Cleo

“I learned so much from this internship and mentorship and it has given me a space to grow as a leader and I am forever grateful for that. UFL taught me such amazing lessons and I was learning alongside the kids and becoming a better person too. My life was actually changed by this internship and I think yours will too.”

Internship Experience | Ashlee

“My time as a practicum student at United Future Leaders has been invaluable. I was given room to grow and learn and encouraged to share my perspective and thoughts in a safe space. Not only does it focus on working with elementary and middle school students through small and large groups, but the personal development that is focused on is such a key benefit. This practicum site values creativity, humor, and connections with people, which allows a student of any future goal to connect with the objectives. As someone who is going into the counseling field, this practicum site has allowed me to practice my facilitation skills in a safe and creative way, which has built my confidence in my abilities and alleviated the believed limitations. It has also taught me what being a leader actually is rather than the generic version that I had been taught previously. I recommend this site to any student who values working with younger students, is open to vulnerability and creativity, and is a team player ready to jump right in.”
